How will you convert propanone to propene ?

Explanation

To convert propanone (acetone) to propene, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Reduction of Propanone to Propan-2-ol
- **Reaction**: Propanone (CH3COCH3) is reduced to propan-2-ol (isopropyl alcohol, CH3CHOHCH3).
- **Reagents**: Use hydrogen gas (H2) in the presence of Raney nickel as a catalyst.
- **Mechanism**: The ketone functional group (C=O) in propanone is converted to an alcohol (C-OH) through the addition of hydrogen.

### Step 2: Dehydration of Propan-2-ol to Propene
